Ugh horrid squeaky stuff.

Ugly as well. Why in earth does someone think buying £5 of tat from HB, dressing it up in cellophane, pitying some finormous bow on it mean that you can charge £20 as a luxury gift basket for him or her for Xmas?

Craft Fairs as well, don't get me started...

Pitying = putting.

But hey, it works...

Its the "lazy persons" style of present buying...it basically says "I didnt have a clue what to buy you, so this will do"

I dont feel strongly about it though

I think edible gifts eg homemade biscuits look lovely wrapped in cellophane, tied up with ribbon

Not as naff as cling film

Homemade gifts look lovely in cellophane, true but us still a squeaky little beast to touch. Ugh.

I'm really talking about people who think adding 13p of cellophane to a few pieces of tat or sone lovehearts and thinking that justifies a 9million % price hike as us homemade. Ya see what I mean?
